Termite Treatment & Protection

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight in Australia. When they infest a home, termites can rapidly cause a large amount of damage, making it vital to call your trusted Box Hill termite pest control provider.

Managing & Removing Termites

You will find different types of termite infestations therefore the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the pros, they are going to apply one of two general termite protection strategies. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

In Box Hill, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate termites. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ advantages that shouldn’t be dismissed.

It’s important to first get a professional white ant exterminator come out to the property to look at the situation.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to identify and an excellent deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants may identify the gaps and can potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they move through the residue and die. Additionally, individual white ants may also transfer the chemicals to other members in the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient effect.

Because termites cannot identify non-repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is considerably less likely.

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent available today, and has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is often used to erradicate termites in your house, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait rather than the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other members of the colony, thus creating a compounding effect.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the position of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are in places where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• Safe for all your family & pets
• Eco-friendly

Common Indications You Have A Termite Infestation

A number of signs that you might have a termite problem include:

• Wood in the building has holes
• Wood which is damaged and breaking down
• Mud tubes appear on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Mounds or nests can be seen in nearby trees
• Swarms of alates flying from the termite nest

Can Termites Badly Damage My Residence?

If left untreated, even just one colony of termites are capable of doing an unexpected amount of destruction. The building may even become unusable as a result of the significance of the infestation, and in extreme cases, can even be irreparable.
